That sounds like a decent route. Alice’s looks like it’s open. Stopping there for food sounds cool.

Alice's actually hasn't been closed this entire time but obviously they can do outdoor dining vs. just take-out now. Just beware cops have off and on been really patrolling the area. The day I went I didn't come across a single cop but my friends have reported differently when they go.

Yes, there’s usually beginner to advanced classes. Register for beginner and you can get some instruction as well. I did my first track day here w this group.
